OH MY GOD Boggans hits the 3 for the win!!! WOW!!!!! Unbemotherfuckinleivable! This was the best game I have watched all year long, college ball and NBA included! Just absolutely incredible!!! I have never watched a game full of this much energy MIXED IN with that many clutch plays and momentum changing baskets. Just stunning! I'm shocked! I am the happiest person alive now that I watched this game! Word can't even describe how great this game was, you had to see it all. <span style="color:#FFA500">Kevin Durant <u>37 points (tied career high), 12 rebounds on 13-31 shooting, 4-12 3FG, 7-9 FT</u> Kevin Durant hit some unbelievably huge shots, he made some excellent plays on both ends, he nailed the 3, took it inside, pulled up from mid-range, and threw a couple slammers down on the break. He struggled with his jumper in the second half, for the most part, but he made the big ones when they needed it most. Durant is going to be a superstar in the NBA. He's just unbelievable.</span> <span style="color:#FFA500">D.J. Augustin <u>19 points, 7 rebounds on 7-15 shooting, 2-5 3FG, 3-4 FT</u> Augustin had himself an excellent night as well. He really pushed the ball at all times, he got some HUGE baskets, and he made the right decisions in crunch time.</span> <span style="color:#FFA500">Connor Atchley <u>6 points, 10 rebounds on 2-6 shooting, 1-1 3FG, 1-3 FT</u> Atchley was tremendous on the glass, especially on the offensive end . He got some BIG rebounds, and he nailed that big three off his offensive rebound. Atchley really played well down the stretch.</span> <span style="color:#FF8C00">Mario Boggan</span> <span style="color:#000000"><u>37 points, 19 rebounds on 13-26 shooting, 1-3 3FG, 10-13 FT, GW three</u></span> <span style="color:#FF8C00">He was absolutely unbelievable! Not only did he hit the game winning 3, he was an ANIMAL tonight the whole way through. He made some clutch drives and shots and he owned the boards. Outstanding performance.</span> <span style="color:#FF8C00">JamesOn Curry</span> <span style="color:#000000"><u>28 points, 10 rebounds on 10-19 shooting, 4-9 3FG, 4-6 FT</u></span> <span style="color:#FF8C00">Curry was also phenomenal. Every 3 he hit was either a huge shot or a big momentum changer. He was outstanding. He used his quickness and ballhandling skills to his advantage and he knocked down the big shots.</span> <span style="color:#FF8C00">Byron Eaton</span> <span style="color:#000000"><u>11 points, 2 rebounds on 5-9 shooting, 1-2 3FG</u></span> <span style="color:#FF8C00">It's a real shame that he fouled out and couldn't participate in the big overtime periods, but he really had himself a hell of a game when he was in there. First of all, that prayer 3 he hit (where he was saving a ball from going out of bounds, and he threw it 1-handed to nail it at the shot clock buzzer) was UNBELIEVABLE. If you missed most of the game, make sure you watch SportsCenter, it'll be on there. He also made a great pass on a fast break. He brought a ton of energy and he got that building jumpin'.</span> This game = :worthy:

BOGGAN BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Wow, this wasone of the best, if not the best, games I have ever seen! Just amazing. Back and fourth, whenever it seemed like we were gonna win it, Texas either made some good plays or we made some mistakes. That press killed us, we suck against it, Kansas owned us when they used it. All I have to say is, I hope Boggan finally gets some more recognition. I have to give Texas and Durant some credit, they have some really good talent. I can't wait for the game in Austin on February 12th. I thought this game was going to come down to what team will hit the shot at the very end, since it was kind of back and fourth and OSU did it with Boggan who IS a good shooter and can take them from beyond the arc. Anyways, Dove was slowing down Durant, but when he fouled out he just couldn't miss.

Sure, he had some good rebounds on both the offenive and defensive end, but did you see how many times he let the opposition get the offensive rebound? It made me go insane! he let a 6 foot 4 guard get 2 offensive rebounds right in front of his face. I was extremely pissed. Two plays that he made tonight that made me happy. When he tipped the ball off of a rebound to somebody in the corner for a 3(I cant remember who it was). And when he made the 3 in one of the OT's. The rest of the time, I was getting mad at him for the reasons listed above. Although his statline was good, and he hustled alot, he let the OSU players get SO many rebounds right in front of his face. Especially Boggans.

And to add insult to injury, his feet werent set and he was leaning forward. That was SUCH a lucky shot.

I mean I kept thinking OSU had it wrapped up or Texas had it, then some great shot or something would happen. I am so shocked right now, especially because I'm a die hard OSU fan, me, my bro, and dad were going freaking crazy the whole game and I think after Boggan hit that shot and they called Abram for the travel the neighbors might have heard us. I am so excited right now it is unbelievable.

He was making every important shot that game, and if he didn't he would get the rebound and go back up. I can recall 5 three pointers you guys made in clutch situations. We made one and it won us the game.
Great game, fell asleep at like 11 though Agustin and Abrams were killing me. Texas really should have won it in regulation, they missed so many layups and threes down the stretch.

And considering it was a 3 point shot, I would find it darn near impossible for him to get the rebound on his lucky 3 point attempt. I remember "one" shot by the Longhorns that went in that shouldnt have. I remember two for OSU. The shot near halfcourt that was thrown up with one hand, and Boggan's three. Im not going to take anything away from the guy, because he played an amazing game, and he played extremely clutch, but if you are going to say that shot wasnt lucky, especially the positioning of the shot, then you are nuts.
